Juliet Report post Posted March 2, 2021 Working with hair-on goat skin for upholstery and I want to carve a design into it but not sure how. I've seen a product from Australia on Etsy, carved hair on goatskin, and would like to try. Any ideas appreciated. https://www.etsy.com/listing/755220970/handcarved-goat-hide?ref=hp_rf-2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
